it_o in_o the_o next_o place_n as_o to_o the_o pretence_n that_o the_o magistrate_n be_v in_o a_o error_n if_o he_o look_v upon_o himself_o as_o concern_v in_o this_o particular_a it_o be_v more_o than_o possible_a that_o that_o very_a pretence_n will_v upon_o examination_n appear_v to_o be_v the_o great_a error_n and_o in_o general_a the_o subject_n be_v no_o more_o free_a from_o error_n than_o the_o sovereign_n and_o this_o need_v not_o seem_v news_n to_o we_o of_o this_o age_n and_o nation_n and_o to_o speak_v the_o truth_n it_o be_v no_o easy_a matter_n to_o find_v out_o any_o
